For example I have a role ID1 with members ID2 and ID3.
Role ID2 has also members ID4 and ID5. It means that roles ID4 and
ID5 are
members of ID1.
The question: Is there any function in PostgreSQL, that finds all the
members of role ID1 - even such members, as ID4 and ID5.
Here's a function I've written in SQL:
CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION get_roles_under(OID)
RETURNS SETOF OID
LANGUAGE sql
AS $$
SELECT
$1
UNION
SELECT
member
FROM
pg_catalog.pg_auth_members
WHERE
roleid = $1
UNION
SELECT
get_roles_over(roleid) AS "roleid"
FROM
pg_catalog.pg_auth_members
WHERE
roleid IN (
SELECT
member
FROM
pg_catalog.pg_auth_members
WHERE
roleid = $1
)
$$;
Should that call to get_roles_over be a call to get_roles_under?
